About Us
palmer//harding launched in 2011 with the simple idea to elevate the humble shirt.
We believe in originality and creativity, and these fundamentals are at the heart and soul of each palmer//harding piece.
Levi Palmer (Belton, Texas) and Matthew Harding (London, England), both alumni of Londons’ Central Saint Martins, live and work in London.
We approach each collection by examining the emotional journeys that we experience, and creating narratives through verb lists which are in turn used to drape and sculpt shapes with fabric across the body.
The sculptural aspect of the design process is an integral part of the brands’ identity - creating unique pieces, centred on the shirt, but also developed across dresses, outerwear, knitwear and other categories.
Each palmer//harding piece has a unique story to tell, which can be discovered in the "designers notes" section and on our hang tags.
